Over the years XC added more modules and js and css too so the size increased. Not to mention XC css/js files load code which may or may not be needed on all pages but still loads. It requires good and time consuming clean up to make the css/js load efficient.

Yes, that what I see looking up the css and js files - a lot of code not applying to the page loaded.
So, they blow up the code volume and then present a solution overcoming the slowdown: v3 of Smarty engine. But the result is still worse than in old versions of x-cart and since 2006 or so the number of mobile phone users increased dramatically. What we need, I guess, soon is a really slim mobile friendly version. Because I bet Google will not only look up the moile friendly layout but also, soon, the mobile loading speed. At least if I were Google, I did so.
Thinking a bit ahead would be great.
I guess I will build my own shopping cart....
